Metlakatla Wilderness Trail

**Due to severe weather damage, please be advised that the Metlakatla Wilderness Trail is closed until further notice.***

Located along the immaculate Northwest Coast of BC, the Metlakatla Wilderness Trail is situated on land inhabited by Coastal Tsimshian people for thousands of years.

The trail runs along the forested shoreline of the Tsimshian Peninsula, 7 km from the city of Prince Rupert and a 15 minute ferry-ride away. Metlakatla is a small community that is one of the seven Tsimshian village communities in British Columbia. The name Metlakatla derives from the Tsimshian Maxłaxaała, which means "saltwater pass."
